StoryIntroducing Sky | Devialet

In television, sound has too often been treated as an afterthought. When we first met with Sky, one of the world’s leading content and entertainment companies, we soon realized we shared the same vision that great entertainment can only be achieved with great sound.

Working closely with them, we put our minds to creating a new kind of entertainment experience through sound, and reinventing the audio journey for their customers.

Sound and music are 50 percent of the entertainment in a movie.

Unveiling our partnership with Sky, taking Television to the next level

The result of this partnership is Sky Soundbox, a bespoke, all-in-one sound system which complements Sky’s TV set-top-box, to create the most comprehensive in home entertainment system.

Designed to enhance the TV experience, it pairs Sky’s knowledge into the insights of their customers with our audio engineering expertise and a tailored combination of our technologies.

Sound is a vital part of visual storytelling. That’s why we’ve partnered with audio industry leaders Devialet to launch Sky Soundbox and take the TV experience to the next level for our customers.

Redefining Television through sound

In a single speaker unit, Sky Soundbox is capable of delivering an outstandingly powerful, dense and immersive sound. Its performance is comparable to that of a full home cinema system with a subwoofer and 5 satellite speakers. Its sound settings adapt automatically depending on the content being played on Sky Q, and its dynamic range adjusts in real time, to guarantee the most immersive experience even at low volumes.

With this partnership, we’re bringing Devialet’s breakthrough audio miniaturization technologies and unique sound quality into the television experience and solving television’s sound problem, once and for all.

Quentin Sannié, CEO de Devialet

“This partnership with Sky is a token of our ability to pursue Devialet’s vision to enable revolutionary experiences through audio, and bring them to the widest number of human beings through partnerships with like-minded companies looking to challenge the status-quo.”

Reaching for the stars

Sky Soundbox is the first-ever partner-product designed and built under a Devialet license, combining our expertise and technologies, from inner design to sound. At Devialet, we believe emotion is all about the details, and we strive to make the emotions of sound something for the many, not the few. We innovate to deliver the most precise and impactful sound experience. At the same time, our inventions are designed to make this experience radically smaller, lighter and more affordable than ever before, through unique amplification and acoustic miniaturisation, combined with breakthrough signal processing technologies.

Bringing this experience to the widest number of people through partnerships with leading brands has always been at the heart of our vision since the very beginning of Devialet’s journey.

Leveraging their long-established relationships with millions of customers and mass production capabilities, these partners offer us an incredible opportunity to give people a flavour of our unique sound at a bigger scale, and pursue our mission to become the world leader in audio.
